GA 316 Official Groundbreaking

Fellow road enthusiasts, here's the latest on the GA 316 front...

Today, Governor Sonny Perdue has officially broken ground for the I-85/GA 316 interchange improvements. Please click here for the story from the WSB-TV website.

Earlier today, the Atlanta-Journal Constitution had an article about the impact of the 316 construction on local businesses around the interchange itself. One local businessman in that vicinity attributes it to a "shot in the gut". Please click here for the article.

According to a WSB-TV news article just broadcast before composing this blog, one of the new ramps will allow traffic to go straight from GA 316 westbound to Pleasant Hill Road without ever having to be on I-85.

As more developments occur, we here at "The Georgia Road Geek" will keep you abreast.

That's all for now. Thanks for reading and please come back often.
